My heart is broken right now. I saw this man endure not only 1 death but three death 2 of them were his sons and 1 was his granddaughter all in this vid. His son was my best friend at his funeral this man told me in Spanish “I know how much U loved my son and how much he loved U”
I couldn’t have asked for a better man to lead and guide my son. Coach
@joehoggatt39
my family and I love you to the moon and back. I can’t thank you enough for always sticking by my kid. Pushing him to give you the very best. To see him cry as he’s hugging you is overwhelming.
When u grow up wearing one uniform and have a dream school i follow that dream n today you achieve it on committing to
@FullertonBSB
. Thanks you
@CSFCoachBrown
People can never tell me that dreams can’t come true!! His dream school since he was 7. I used to ask him “what college do you want to play at?” Him “Fullerton, I’m a Titan”.

Had a kid ✅ supported him ✅ got him through high school ✅ put him with great coaches ✅ dropping him off at college ✅ No more money from me ✅ 😂😂. 17 years of being side by side sleeping in the same house to him being independent. Love you son I’m proud of you.
@IzeahMuniz
Proud moment. I set a goal for him before he was born. I remember talking into his mother’s belly promising him that I’d make sure he would be like me. I promised him that he would go to college and with Lords help he is.
@CSFCoachBrown
Im super proud of u
@IzeahMuniz
. I know that I made you hate the times i would get on U but I know you understand Y! This is all U ur hard work and determination. For me knowing U are doing things that I could not and u becoming the opposite of me is a greater reward. Proud of U!
Player: Coach can you film my bullpen for a college coach that wants to see my bullpen vid. Coach: go have that other team you helped last week film it for you. Parents choose a program that is in it for the best interest in your son not for themselves.
When I was a kid I idolized the big Homies in the streets packing guns and selling dope. When I had kids I vowed to have my kids idolize someone better. I showed them the great Mexican baseball players and now they saw a new great one in Julio Urias.
This guy says to me “Im frustrated I’m not getting any innings” me: “You’re a freshman at a prestigious HS, you haven’t earned their trust just yet. Once you get in show them you can be trusted “. Since that talk he’s been in every other game.
I love it when a HS coach says “I’m not begging no kid to play or stay at our school!! I’m going to coach up the guys I have here let the ones leaving go play for a coach that can only recruit and not coach.” That’s the type of coach you should want your kid to play for!!
I will say it over and over again. Trust you kids with a program that is in it for your kid nothing else. I was fortunate enough to have my kid play on

#tradition
Well I guess it’s official now. My youngest will be attending Amat next year. I said it last year abs I’ll say it again. There’s nobody better to I trust to coach my boys then Hoggatt. What he did for Izeah showed me that. It was the behind the scenes that proved it for me.
What other pitching coach has 2 current Cal State Fullerton Titans pitchers and 2 more committed to be a Titans?

building yr own farm team brother. Never been so proud that my kid came from the same town Baldwin park attended the same school Bishop now mentored by you
Happy bday to my 1st born son. Can’t believe it’s been 18yrs today. The minute ur mom told me she was preggos something in my heart changed. In that minute I knew I loved you more than anything in this world. I made a promise and you’ve accomplished it. I’ll die for you !!
A friend made fun of my truck. He said “why don’t U buy a new car foo?” I replied “ because the money I would be paying monthly on a new car is used to invest in my kids futures. It’s their tuition!! I’ll sacrifice my car to give them a better chance to win in life.”
Great game today. To be the best you have to play vs some of the best. I Can honestly say that his decision to get better has paid off and todays game showed that once again.
How time flies how did we get here! From tball to High school. Freshman year at Amat. I’ll say this again and I’ll say it loud there’s nobody better to trust with my boys then
@joehoggatt39

@amatbaseball
I used to read these pitching charts that pitching Coach Chuy at Amat used to give my oldest son when he pitched for. Now I’m reading my youngest sons pitching chart from the same man. Love everything he wrote on this chart. Speaking truth never settle.
Big shoes he’s had to follow but he’s embraced it so much he took on his big brothers amat jersey number
#44
. His turn to show up and prove himself just a freshman on VAR.

Bishop Amat defeats South Hills 9-2. Then Beats Sam Dimas 2-0 in the RJ Legacy games. Two guys and friends that grew up facing each other since the age of 7 years old got to face each other again today. Gilbert “Gibby” Morales (SH) vs Izeah Muniz (Bishop).
Flashback to the good ole days. Luis Rodriguez OLU and

@Sergio_Brown13
kids like mine n other from where we come from need coaches like Him. He makes kids believe in themselves. My oldest is playing college ball because of this man believed in him. It’s a shame he didn’t get to coach him. But I still have 1 more.
Please welcome

My Dawg!! I grew up with a soccer dad but I learned how to play ball in the streets and by watching Don Drysdale in the Dodgers pre game. In returned I taught my kids that mentality. The good old Koufax, Drysdale and Bob Gibson type of mentality.

Wtf? I’m minority and so are my kids and I can tell you first hand Covid helped my kids. It made my oldest concentrate more and actually pay attention more and his grades came up 2x.
Rest easy Coach Bill Valentine. Meeting you was a great joy but hiring you to coach the freshman team at Schurr was god sent. You will always be a Legend in my eyes. Schurr baseball lost a good leader of young men and a great human being.
Sorround yourself with winners and you will become a winner. Work harder than the next guy and you will see the results.
@paulpaez29
I'm just hoping this guys doesn't grow a man bun like you. 😂😂
I received this text from one of my coaches , parent and friend of my old Pomona titans team after attending a baby shower for one of our old players. All I ever wanted was to show kids in our city that there was more in life than what they saw in the streets the drug and gangs.
@SoCalBirds
Here's another question. How come some programs claim a player that only played a few tourneys with them but make it seemed like they had them since day 1? See that shit alot even if everyone knows that player played with the whole travel ball world lol.
I always made it a point to find a great coach for any of my kids. God guided us to some great coaches but also great teachers and a great school on Bishop. Inthabk god daily for that life changing decision we made. All the coaches n teachers have been amazing.
@CoachChuy67
This a fucked up day for me. Laid my best friend to rest in ‘08, then his daughter in ‘20 his lil brother in ‘21 now today his father. That man was a great man never judged us even thought everyone else did. Didn’t care what others would say about us he loved us unconditionally.
So I was telling people that the reason I love that my kid plays at Bishop and my youngest will be a Lancer is Coach Hoggat schedules nothing but the top D1 team. I think we have a top 5 strongest schedule. I rather have the record we have then a winning record of lower divisions
I believe God sets your path in life. I believe my son’s path is going the way it was supposed to go. I believe that his Tommy John surgery was set up to reunite him with the coach he was supposed to play under. The coach he was excited to play for coming out of HS. Gods plan!!
The last year that these three will be playing with each other. 4 years on Var at Bishop. Tyler (LBST), Izeah (Fullerton) and Briones (SDST).
@amatbaseball
It's comical how some parents embellish their sons stats just so they can get some recognition. How can a catcher have better pop time then a MLB catcher? And still not be a top catcher in his grade? Maybe because its not true? Comical.
So i was told that last Saturday the hospital called the priest to give my Gma her final rites. I spoke to my aunt the other day she said “she’s fighting can’t speak and didn’t recognize anyone but today she did recognize us so that good but she still in bad shape”. She a fighter
Someone asked me what is my greatest achievement. Easy making sure my kids didn’t do the same mistakes I did. I don’t regret my mistakes my transgressions because it made me realize that my kids needed a better path than I had and someone to lead them the right way.
The saying goes “You can take the homeboy out the hood but you can’t take the hood out the homeboy”. He will defend his when he needs to. I like this “You want to jaw ill jaw back” we talk but we back ours up I’ve always told my boys that!!
No bs last night was the toughest night of my life. I couldn’t sleep I kept waking up every 20 minutes. Made me want to go hug my mom and say “I’m Sorry”. My son went to his prom and I kept pray for him to come home safe and sound. Now I know what I put my mom through.

Idk man if true that Bechtel slapped his hand then I wouldn’t want no part of shaking that guys hand either. And from watching videos of Bechtel he dies seem like a piece of work also. I’m sure he will say that they beat themselves and handed Amat the game like every other game.

Funny story on this guy. When he was small he threw right handed. I told him throw from the left never throw from the right ever again when he did I would take the ball way and put it in his left hand .BOOM!! my plan has paid off so far.
Four year together and it’s been a blast. As a father I’m super proud and sad at the same time of these guys. On Varsity as freshman and now being guided by god to fulfill their dreams.

Finally seeing some live hitters.
@paulpaez29
has this guy working out lost 30lbs and has him mastering a 4th pitch. 1 thing is for sure he still can't take me. I show him a lil hood in me and he backs down.
This vid shows me alot about him. He was upset that the lefty batter grounded out on him. I told him you allowed 2 hits in 5 inn. He replied "The 2 hits were hit hard they shouldn't have hit me that hard". Next batter he struck him out. I love his mentality.
@Mhern99
@paulpaez29
I’ll say it AGAIN so the people in the back can hear it. You can recruit the top players to play for you their actions on the field are a reflection of the coach. Great coaches teach character and respect. Bad coaches assemble great team but can’t teach none of the above.
My grandma had a heart attack on Friday. My dad told me b4 he left to MX last night that they told the family to say their hood byes. I knew that this could be both my grandmas last years here on earth. God’s plan is all I can think right now. He has a better plan for her now.
This why I’ve trusted this man with not only 1 of my boys but I sent him my youngest (the freshman). I would of sent him my middle son but he decided that being a tattoo artist was better. From
The looks Hoggat don’t know about tattoos 😂😂
My youngest son is a weirdo. He hates corn in food but will eat corn on the Cobb, he hates potatoes but will eat French fries and he hates cheese but will eat pizza. In his defense he is a lefty and someone once told me “Lefties are weirdos”. 😂😂😂
Man RIP to the man the legend the one that had me up trying to dedicate these FIRME oldies to some FIRME rucas. RIP Art Laboe. Kept the oldies alive for many of us to hear them.
I needed to see this today I truly did. There’s things that I did in my younger days that I truly feel I will never be able to ask god for forgiveness for. But I’m making sure my kids will never have deal with those guilts that are heavy in my heart.
While everyone is out there buying all the Toilet paper I did something better. I went and bought 10 more pairs of underwear. I'll be taking many showers after I use the restroom. You guys can keep your toilet paper and shove it up your but.
